Schedule

Here’s your roadmap for the semester!

  • This will be a standard lecture format class with some in class participation.
  • This will be active coding workshop where we will work through a dataset (both as a class and in groups) to incorporate what we previously learned.
  • This will be an in-person help-desk where you can go and get help with a previously assigned practice worksheet with a tutor or to ask any questions about the course, the material, the exam, etc.
    • You can also ask me any of this stuff too btw!
  • This will be a graded Moodle quiz that will take up a part of your continuous assessment.
